xhost: unable to open display
by Annette Bitz 08 Jun '05

08 Jun '05

Hi! On my new box installed with SuSE 9.2 prof. I got a really critical problem. When I say xhost + in a local shell I get the message: xhost: unable to open display "<name-of-box>:0.0" I also tried to do "xhost <name-of-remote-box>" with the same result. The display name is set correctly (as printenv says). This is very urgent, for we need to open windows from other, remote boxes on this machine. Without that, it can't be used. :-( Any ideas?

Dieter, I have one question, is 128 MB the size of memory on your video card? Mine has 256, so would I need to double that? -Alain -----Original Message----- From: Dieter Jurzitza [mailto:dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de] Sent: Friday, June 03, 2005 1:14 PM To: suse-xfree86(a)suse.com Subject: Re: [suse-xfree86] fglrx-configuration Dear Alain, dear listmembers, please find my personal README regarding the framebuffer issue attached to this file. If you find messages like "vmalloc error" on the F10 - console you have to add a parameter "vmalloc=SIZE" to the grub startup line in order to increase the size of the vmalloc buffer to SIZE. I use 192 [MB] what seems to be appropriate (default is 128 MB (?) as I found out) I am currently on the way to set up a package for SuSE one may configure via yast, I'll provide it to the list as soon as it is available.

Please do. I have seen that error if xdm or twm attempted to start as my window manager instead of gdm. Under gdm I do not see that error message. But it would be nice to double check my system anyways. -Alain. -----Original Message----- From: Dieter Jurzitza [mailto:dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de] Sent: Wednesday, June 01, 2005 1:28 PM To: suse-xfree86(a)suse.com Subject: [suse-xfree86] fglrx-configuration Dear listmembers, configuring fglrx (ATI Radeon 9600XT @ 128MB) I saw two types of error messages on the F10 - console: 1.) mtrr overlap issues. 2.) vmalloc error messages. After googling and reviewing the documentation I found a solution for this. I have not seen any reference to this on the list and would be interested if anyone out there saw similar issues. There are no references in the SuSE installation README, too. I prepared a documentation (for myself) how to cope with this, if anybody is interested I would post it to the list.

Problems with X with Intel graphic controler 82865 G (Chip i830) after update from 8.0 to 9.1
by Alexander Beck-Ratzka 02 Jun '05

02 Jun '05

Hello list, I can't start X after an update from SuSE professional 8.0 to SuSE professional 9.1, and I believe the problems arise, because I've installed an the XFree86 Version 4.3.99.902 (4.4.0 RC 2) on my former SuSE release. The reason for installing XFree86 Version 4.3.99.902 where problems with Intel graphic controler 82865 G (Chip i830). After an BIOS update, I've solved these problems, but after my update to 9.1, I cannot start X, even not in a low resolution :-( Before looking for errors reason, I like ot have a clear system environment. Therefore I like to deinstall XFree86 Version 4.3.99.902, and ot install the X-utilities from the SuSE 9.1 distribution. My question now is: what must I do to deinstall XFree86 Version 4.3.99.902 completely; that means: which directories must be removed (including fonts), how can I update the SuSE package description? A presentation of my logfiles in this email is not possible; attachments (I've tried an cong.tgz) will be removed from the emails to this list, and putting the XF86Config and the X-Logfile directly to the body makes the email to large to be put to the list. So if anyone likes to have these files, please send me an email to my address directly (can be seen with "reply to all" ), and you'll get these documents from me to your home address... Thanks in advance! Alexander
